| Abstract | During the past three decades there has been an increasing interest in population -- its numbers, its make-up or composition, its distribution in space, and the changes therein, and its growth. This interest in population is not misplaced as the population faots and changes are most intimately bound up with the immediate welfare of individuals, and from a broader standpoint with the masses. Also, reliable information must be on hand because it is essential to effective administration and appraisal of many activities of government. Varied information on population growth and its geographic distribution is also needed by the business community, and by civic and welfare organizations. All these must base their future activities, in some part, on projections of future population, and its distribution. A considered appraisal of underlyingrelationships and trends, based upon careful evaluation of past and present, is basic to projection of the future.; Statement of the problem. The purpose of this paper is to determine whether a mathematical relationship exists between population density growth and/or growth in Los Angeles County over the years and distance from the Central Business District .; Importance of the study. Many of the major decisions made by government, business men, and others, depend upon express or implied forecasts of population and its distribution.; Governmental projections are related to provision of utilities, schools, highways, etc, From the viewpoint of business, projections are basic to estimating needs for office buildings, retail stores, restaurants, and other services. Community service organizations, too, depend on projections for estimating future needs for their activities. |
